    If you have a Hawker-Typhoon-themed bottle, now would be the time.... o0

    I am sorry, Chris, but in my searches I have not come across a Hawker Typhoon drink yet. I did the Eurofighter Typhoon a while back though, if that is any good.

    Today, I have found a drink named after the Bristol Blenheim.

    Braved the downpour and went to the Lucky Lab in the Pearl for an art display my step-daughter was part of.
    Had a nice "nitro" and an ESB

    I think the Typhoon would be be good based on tomorrow's forecast ...

    I spent 5 years on Okinawa and have seen many typhoons. They are used to them but not where you are. Be safe. The spookiest part is when the eye comes over you. All is calm and you can see the clear sky. Have to look for another beer to add to this collection.

    Very good, Rob! I did not know that Snoopy was also a test pilot.

    This next ale is named after the famous James Doolittle, who was born in Alameda, California. I have found a video review for it.

    I am afraid that you may find it difficult to obtain the Black Flight beers in #170, Rob, because it is brewed in Finland. Here is another of their products celebrating an aeroplane that no other country would likely consider worthwhile.

    No, it is not a Blackburn Skua but you could easily be misled by its design and because of its Bristol Mercury engine.
    Wikipedia tells us that the Valmet Vihuri (Finnish for Gale) was a Finnish advanced two-seat fighter trainer aircraft, serving in the Finnish Air Force between 1953 and 1959. Only a few airframes have survived, as in the Central Finland Aviation Museum in Finland.

    The aircraft is a Valtion Lentokonetehdas VL Viima. Versions of the two-seat biplane trainer were used by the Finnish Airforce from the late 1930's until the early 1960's.

    The aircraft is the prototype Valmet Tuuli II trainer. Other versions had a different engine and the rear fuselage cut down to improve visibility and it thus resembled a Chipmunk.
